How much is the petrol in UK? Here in Italy it costs 1.6€/litre, ~1.14 £ with the current change.

Around the same, 1.54 euros per litre.
|
|
|
|
|
|
And on top of that, individual localities my add additional tax.

What I find interesting is big differences between some bordering states. I bet you a lot of people living in California close to the border with Arizona, pop across the border to fill up. So Arizona pockets the tax some Californians pay on gas - tax that should have been collected in CA! Weird!

I have a long commute, I know where to pick up the cheapest gas. I think people do that without even realizing why it is cheaper in the next county.
I used to live in a city on the main distribution path for the gas stations. We actually had the cheapest gas in the state. Then, one day, the city council decided they wanted some money... our gas prices spiked overnight

Well, bureaucrats always know how spend your hard earned dollars better than you ever can! Pay your taxes with a smile, like this:

Nice! If I did the math right that equates to about $0.89 US / US gal.
I paid $2.16/gal this morning or about 2.4 times more than you.
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.

Oh well, yesterday I paid 6.38 $/ US gal, about three times that. But our salaries are much lower, around 20K/year for 15-years-experience IT professionals...

Ouch! If it helps my daily commute is about 30 miles (round trip) in a car that gets about 25 miles/gal or about $2.60 / day.

Dave,
In your new position, are you using the OSISoft PI system or is it available?
|
|

I don't know what they are using for definite. But babelfish has been mentioned a couple of times.

Can you email me a tankfull?

We need someone to blame for petrol prices!
Whom do we know who's in the petro-chemical industry!
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
|
|
|
|
|
It's the taxman to blame not the oil industry!
|
|
|
|
|
Hey, none of yer buck passery!
You'll notice that no taxmen have posted replies blaming you, so they must be the honorable guys, and you're obviously to blame!

Nice.
Here in SA a lot of the price is made up of taxes and levies. Plus it being related to the oil price in dollars, with our weaker currency it's not as cheap as it used to be a few years ago. Here's a breakdown of how much taxes and levies go into it. click[^]

So it looks like the easy method is to use the migrator app to migrate to GitHub, problem is I'm not sure I want to use GitHub (its not intuitive for my tastes and takes tons of setup time I would need to do across my machines). I was thinking of migrating to CodePlex but of course, Google doesn't have documentation for that so I would just figure it out. It would be nice to use the Team Explorer in VS as well.
I don't know much about BitBucket and I like sourceforge but their website is horrible, imo.
What are some people planning on migrating to?

Is this for a public or private repository?
If it's private, you could move to TFS Online, they host Git too.
But personally I really like Github, it makes a lot of sense once you get into it.

|
|
|
Mostly public, about 13 projects, a few don't need to be migrated.
Good point, I forgot about VSO.

I'm in the process of getting started with Bitbucket and TE in VS - it was all pretty easy to set up.
This helped a lot, once I got teh general idea what I wanted.[^]
The fun bit was getting the local repository set up and working first - I had a couple of external projects in my first solution and didn't copy those to the repository folder along with the main solution, so the references were broken and it didn't compile. Once I'd sorted that, it was pretty simple to set up at least the basics using a clean, empty Bitbucket repository.
The only think I don't have is certificate based sign in - I'm using password based instead - since I can't find the GIT certificate generator without installing GIT separately, which I'm trying to avoid. For teh moment, I just want to use what comes with VS, not add anything until I'm happy I know what I'm doing with GIT.

the instructions for "Set up Git on your dev machine" is more lengthy than desired but it might be unavoidable. So tempted just to use the google migrator tool, something tells me I'm going to be trying all the posssible solutions just so I can choose what I like best
